Miranda Is President's Choice For ABC

Miranda Technologies has announced that ABC News played out its stunning graphics for this year's historic US Presidential Elections, from ABC's Times Square and 66th Street News Centers, using Miranda's Xmedia Suite graphics workflow tools and Vertigo XG graphics processors.
The television news heavy-weight has counted on the Xmedia Suite graphics tools for its presidential, primary and mid-term election graphics since 2002.
This year, ABC News presented its HD and SD viewers with even more sophisticated graphics, including 3D maps, full-screen election boards, and a live double election ticker with staggered results for Presidential, Senate and Governor races.
All of these graphics were controlled by the Xmedia Suite, using 20 Xplay graphics sequence controllers, which were fully integrated with ABC's newsroom and automation systems.
ABC's Times Square and 66th Street sites were equipped to drive over 20 HD and SD on-air graphics devices, including 3D and 2D graphics processors, video walls, and touch screen control panels for ABC anchors.
"ABC's election graphics were fresh, engaging and highly dynamic," said Raagi Pandya, Product Manager, Playout and Graphics, at Miranda Technologies.
"This was a big and very exciting project, and we're delighted to have had the opportunity to work so closely with ABC once more."
